Development of Greater Philadelphia Metro Export Plan Moves Forward

The  World Trade Center of Greater Philadelphia and the Economy League of Greater Philadelphia are moving forward with a collaborative effort to develop a metro export growth plan for our region. In conjunction with Philadelphia’s participation in the Global Cities Initiative, the Greater Philadelphia Metro Export Plan Steering Committee, comprised of area business, nonprofit, and government leaders, met earlier this month to review preliminary results of an in-depth market assessment examining the region’s export performance and opportunities. The market assessment - which draws upon extensive analysis of regional data, a survey of area firms, and interviews conducted over the past three months - will be finalized and released later this summer, laying the groundwork for development of an action-oriented metro export plan in the fall .
